Landgoed de Wilmersberg
Romantic countryside estate with English-influenced decor, warm family-run atmosphere, and a strong wellness and farm-to-table focus. Think cozy fireplaces in winter, terrace dining in summer, and an unhurried pace throughout.
Book Sunday through Thursday for lower rates and shorter waits — the hotel itself flags this on its website.
Why It Matters
A 100-year-old estate hotel with an on-site Michelin-recognized vegetable-forward restaurant, Green Key Gold sustainability certification, and a proper Wellness Boutique — all in a genuinely remote corner of Overijssel that most travelers overlook.
Built in 1923 by the Blijdenstein textile family, this 4-star country estate sits on 14 hectares of woodland outside the small village of De Lutte in Twente, close to the German border. The original tradition of welcoming guests with hot chocolate and pancakes has evolved into something rather more polished — a proper spa, a Michelin-recognized restaurant, and rooms styled after the Rijksmuseum Twenthe. Rated in the top 13 hotels in the Netherlands on TripAdvisor and Green Key Gold certified for sustainability.
Where You'll Stay
7 room types available
Junior Suite
From EUR234 / nightTwo Junior Suites, each with their own distinct character and both furnished in the style of the Rijksmuseum Twenthe in Enschede. Larger than the Royal Rooms and available with either a French balcony or a terrace. Popular as honeymoon suites. One cot and one extra bed possible.
35 sqmRoyal Forest Room with Terrace
From EUR184 / nightSame size and price point as the Garden Room but oriented toward the forest rather than the garden. Notably, this is one of the few room types where dogs are permitted — handy for guests traveling with pets.
30 sqmRoyal Garden Room with Terrace
From EUR184 / nightLovingly refurbished in 2019, these 30 m² rooms each come with their own garden-facing private terrace — the outdoor space is the upgrade here over the French balcony rooms. Same comfortable standard as the other Royal Rooms. Dogs not permitted.
30 sqmRoyal Room with French Balcony
From EUR159 / nightThe main room category at De Wilmersberg. Beautifully furnished with a luxurious look featuring yellow or gold edging, king-size beds replaced in 2016/2017, large bathroom with bath and separate toilet, Smart TV with Netflix. The French balcony gives you fresh air without a full terrace. Up to one cot possible.
King · 30 sqm
Royale Suite / Family Room
From EUR294 / nightThe top of the range. Two exclusive Large Estate Suites at 40 m², each with a unique look inspired by Rijksmuseum Twenthe art. A proper separate living area (armchairs, sofa, dining table) screens off from the sleeping area via a sliding door. The bathroom has a whirlpool, shower, underfloor heating, separate toilet, bidet, and hairdryer. Can accommodate up to a family with two extra beds.
40 sqm
Small Room
From EUR99 / nightThe hotel itself calls these the 'Fiat 500' of hotel rooms — compact, functional, and modern. There are 12 of them. Fine for a solo business trip or a very short stay, but the property openly suggests upgrading to a Royal Room for anything more than a night. No extra beds or cots, no dogs.
21 sqm
Special Room (Adapted)
From EUR184 / nightAdapted room for guests with reduced mobility, 30 m² and priced in line with the Garden and Forest Rooms.
